The Bucks organization must have relented on some kind of “no Chipotle in the locker room” rule or something because John “Chipotle Fiend” Henson has been playing inspired basketball for the past few games. Now that Henson is finally able to enjoy multiple stuffed-to-bursting Chipotle burritos before every game and even during halftime, he shows…
Read MoreDorian Finney-Smith 11 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
The only thing I know about Dorian “Mode” Finney-Smith is that he has been among the least productive starters in the league, at least in terms of raw point totals. He’s averaging four points per game right now, and that’s including this eleven-point outlier game. Off the top of my head, only Pascal Siakam approaches…
Read MorePascal Siakam 14 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
Forget what I said about Dario Saric being the second-best rookie so far this season. I take that back. It isn’t the wrongest thing I’ve ever claimed in one of these godforsaken description boxes, but it was still wrong. You get one chance to guess who I REALLY think the second-best rookie is. One chance,…
Read MoreDragan Bender 10 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
Eventually, Dragan Bender is going to have to score more than 10 points, or I’m going to have to stop making highlights of him. There. I said it. I hate to put my foot down(toBuck) like this, but I can’t keep devoting primo channel space to a guy who can barely crack double figures. I’ll…
Read MoreDwight Powell Career High 17 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
Dirk Nowitzki has passed away. It’s sad, and the Mavericks should take an appropriate amount of time to mourn, but there is still basketball to be played. Dirk wouldn’t have wanted his team to lose games just because of him not being there anymore. He would want them to carry on and be strong, be…
Read MoreWesley Matthews 26 Points/7 Threes Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
Man, what the heck happened here? The Mavericks were definitely NOT supposed to beat the Bulls. The Mavericks = bad team. The Bulls = good team. Bad teams do not normally beat good teams. This totally messes up my power-rankings. Like, really, really bad. What am I supposed to do now? There is no way…
Read MoreFrank Kaminsky 21 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
Frank Kaminsky: 10 points per game scorer? Yes! If Frank the Tank’s season ended today, he would have averaged a bit over 10 points per game through the entirety of it. No denying it: the numbers are right there for anyone to look at. Michael Jordan is looking at them right now, and he’s smiling…
Read MoreDario Saric 21 Points/1 Ankle-Breaker Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
It says a lot about the current state of NBA rookie-dom that Dario Saric, who has been struggling mightily, is still probably the second-best first-year player so far this season. After Joel Embiid, of course, who has already won ROY. Have rookies always been this bad? Most of them usually are, but there’s normally more…
Read MoreLou Williams 40 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
When I saw that Lou Williams had 28 in the first half against the Grizzlies, well, you know what I was thinking. You know what record I thought was going to have its owner stricken from the Guinness World Record book and have Williams’ name placed beside it instead. No, not Wilt’s 100. That would…
Read MoreTroy Daniels Career High 31 Points Full Highlights (12/3/2016)
When I saw that Troy Daniels had 23 in the first half against the Lakers, well, you know what I was thinking. You know what record I thought was going to have its owner stricken from the Guinness World Record book and have Daniels’ name placed beside it instead. No, not Wilt’s 100. That would…
